This edited volume on Munda linguistics makes an important contribution in terms of analysing and demonstrating key issues such as Proto-Munda reconstruction, migration of Munda language speakers, and synchronic linguistic issues in Munda languages spoken in India. The contributions here reflect the diverse range of scholarship on Munda languages which combines empirical and theoretical discussion; the volume will be an extremely useful reference after a long gap in research on Munda languages and it will be useful not only for scholars interested in research on Munda languages, but also to those interested in typological studies and in documentary and field linguistics more generally. Moreover, this will be a major contribution to the understanding of the cultural and linguistic dynamics of South Asia as a linguistic area.

Shailendra Mohan is Professor in Austroasiatic Linguistics at the Deccan College PG&RI (Deemed University), Pune, India. He works on lesser-studied languages of India, both from a descriptive as well as a comparative typological perspective. His areas of specialization include language typology, language contact and endangered languages. He co-edited the volume Alternative Voices: (Re)searching Language, Culture, Identity (2013). He is currently working on the documentation and description of the endangered language Nihali in India.
